the top of each file list box are “Up One Level” and “Refresh”.
LAN Admin
http://www.youngzsoft.net/lanadmin/
To send a file to Client
1. Select the file in the Server’s list box.
2. Select the Client to receive the file in the Client list.
3. Select the path in the Client’s list box.
4. Click “Send”. If it is desired to open the file upon successful transmission, click
“Send & Open”.
5. When transfer is complete, a dialog will pop up on the Client’s computer
listing
the files transferred.
An alternate way to send a file to the Client:
Select the path in the Client’s list box, and drag the desired file from the Server’s
list
box to the Client’s list box.
To obtain a file from Client

LAN Admin
http://www.youngzsoft.net/lanadmin/
3. Select the path in the Server’s list box.
4. Click “Receive”.
5. The file is saved in the Server’s computer under the folder with the Client’s
name. If the folder does not yet exist, it is automatically created.
An alternate way to receive a file from the Client:
Locate the file in the Client’s list box, and then select a directory in the Server’s
list
box. Next drag the file into the Server’s list box.
When a group of Clients is selected instead of one single Client before transfer,
sending a file causes the file to be copied to the same path of the relevant
Clients’ computers. Similarly, the Receive command obtains the file of the same
name under the same path from the relevant Client’s computers and stores
them under folders of their respective names. The drag-and-drop method works
in the same way when sending or receiving with respect to multiple Client
computers.
